{"Image DocumentName": "Nutritional Vitamins minerals anti-oxidants zinc", "Image ImageDescription": "For the most part, there is no indication that athlete require greater quantities of vitamins than non-athletes. Antioxidant vitamins: C, E, and A may have some benefits in the reduction of free radical formation, which is increased with exercise. One should exercise care with Vitamin A supplementation due to the risk of overdosing. Megadosing has not proved effective. A daily vitamin that meets the RDA\u2019s should do the trick. Additional C and E supplements will probably do no harm. Mineral supplementation may also be a waste of money. The athlete who practices good nutrition should have adequate electrolyte stores in the proper balance for practice and competition, and be able to replenish those stores with the post exercise meals. It takes less discipline and planning to try to replace the depleted electrolytes than prevent the depletion. The folks at Gatorade would like you to believe that all athletes will benefit from electrolyte supplementation, but only those engaged in long duration continuos activities really do. This information wouldn\u2019t be a good marketing strategy though, would it?", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
